A Glimpse in a New Direction 2026 Education Conference

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

This one-day conference is for educators, parents, caregivers, and education students. While our organization is dedicated to supporting the Down syndrome community in our region, the conference itself is not Down syndrome-specific and focuses more broadly on inclusive education, best practices, and meaningful support during the school-age years.

Attendees will be eligible to earn seven (7) Continuing Education Contact Hours (CECHs).
